Dennis R. Olson

Shannon.. Just heard about your Dennis. Sending many blessings to you and your family.

Oh Shannon, I am so very sorry for your loss! I send you my sincerest sympathy. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. May God bless you and your family.

For my good friend and his wife, Shannon. During a night trip by bus from El Paso to Tucson, a great human being was waiting for me early in the morning at the bus station so we could head together to one of the many field trips we would later share. A funny, easygoing, and passionate geologist - but above all, a wonderful husband, friend, and human being - Dennis Olson was surrounded by a beautiful family and two amazing puppies. Now you are an angel watching over us every day and...

I started playing Racquetball at the same time Dennis did back in 1982 with the same group of guys. I knew him as a great man who loved life, his friends, and his family. He was quite well versed on a lot of subjects. His legacy is imprinted on my mind on an ongoing basis.

More than all the stars in the sky. Always.

Dennis, I was honored to have known you. I truly enjoyed your company at SUBVETS meetings and the 2024 and 2025 Western Region conventions. I had a great deal of respect for you, and respect from me doesn't come easy. Fair winds as you cross the bar; I look forward to seeing you again.
